For most programmers, freshman year is rookie, but many eventually become a big cow level characters. So, there is nothing, mainly to see how we now plan their future path, how to arrange study plan.
For a programmer, talent is important, but more importantly is indeed interest and persistence.
University during this time, we can say that this life from kindergarten to pre-retirement, the sole owner of the stage they can dominate a lot of time. If you want to learn programming in the future to become a programmer, so during this time, you need to spend more information on the study program.
Of course, a lot of things to learn, we can be lazy, do not learn today, then tomorrow, science, tomorrow, day after tomorrow will not learn science, however, did not learn to learn fine, then we need to continue to take the time to fill. It might as well learn in college, stick to it, 28-year-old became a big cattle and 40-year-old became a big cow, not a level.
I until now, I have also been in regret why the fun, so that now it takes more time to make up. For we do not take my detour, I also talk about some of the voice of experience it.
First, learn math.
I was in college, in fact, do not understand why we have to learn the high number? Linear Algebra? Going to help us in the future? 60 into that for my goal. Probably many of my classmates and I, like, 60 points is the goal of learning.
If your goal is to learn 60 minutes, then please correct and timely. Knowledge is very hypocritical, if not solid science, so after a few years, you want to use it, you do not know it, you will not be able to recognize it.
Once upon a time, I was watching an algorithm of time, which it uses normal distribution, a parameter of the function is quantile normal distribution. I vaguely remember that this should be in addition to the content in discrete mathematics, the other really forgotten, really hates few when goes to use the book.
Of course, even if your future programming in more biased in favor of the application level, mathematics is necessary. Although few will let you go to school as do the math, but you will need to consider the efficiency of the system, resource intensive, and so on, the easiest way is calculated by the results, each programmer must have quality.
If we learn the math, then the next one is to get to know the language
There are now more fire language Java and Python, of course, if you are really interested in the underlying technology, then you can consider learning Java, Java learning materials if necessary, or on the Java learning do not understand, I can private letter "exchange" get. ,
When just beginning to learn the language, do not do too much, to do a language proficiency. While it is true at the same time, some programmers proficient in several languages, but his favorite, with the best or only one. It is as if we study human language, there is a mother tongue only.
In learning the language above, do not listen to what "PHP is the best language in the world", "Java is the best language in the world," this silly thing. Language long-standing dispute, as a programmer, do their own thing on the line. Just from employment to consider the case, most jobs Java, but Java engineers the most. Python is now normalizing, mainly in the field of artificial intelligence development Python good future potential, if you like artificial intelligence, could be considered.
Finally, think of a product
Before I was in college, most admired Who is it? Yao Zhuang constitution, also called him "the father of the Legend of." Because "Paladin 1" Most of the content is Yao Zhuang constitution made out of a person. As a result, Sword and also known as "The Legend of a man."
I have also thought about doing a game out of a person. Unfortunately, people can always find an excuse for their own lazy. So, college, can consider yourself to do a little product out. A small tool, a game, a small APP can be. Practice is the best way to test his knowledge.
These are some small experience, in fact, do not spend too much of their own time, at the University of 4 years, enough yourself all this.
